Building an Empire among legos and noise...

I am a little obsessed this week. My launch is Friday, and I am not so worried about that. What I am obsessing over, is doing things right. Stella & Dot basically hands you a roadmap for success. This plan is so well thought out, they give you every tool possible to build and sustain an amazing business. All you have to do, is have the right attitude, and take action. I am so excited at the prospect of building this business that I am obsessing over lists and details. Not uncommon, I think. Where I am trying to stretch myself more than ever is in the action department. Action will make the difference between whether I build a business, or just a fabulous jewelry wardrobe for my self (my husbands worst nightmare). I am trying to dedicate time to it and treat it like a job, but..... I still have my four year old here looking for lots of attention and mommy love. I pick up the phone, he starts crashing lego's, I try to compose emails, he is playing me a concert on the piano. Outside of constructing a sound proof room, and letting my four year old run wild, I'm not sure how to do this. I know it can be done, I just have to get creative. As I mentioned in an earlier post.... I need a little silence to think. Not much silence happens in my world. Any suggestions friends???? I WELCOME COMMENTS!!!! :) really, I could use some help here.

The Sky is Blue

I want to thank all of you who lift my family up in prayer.  I thank all of you who give us encouragement.  I try really hard to see the cup 1/2 full, and most days I do.  I was feeling a little down last night, but today is a new day.  Blue skies remind me of how much I am loved.  Have an awesome day friends. And.....on a side note.... Go Viewpoint Patriots!!! We are in the playoffs! Wooo Hoooooo!

Networking can be expensive!

I went to a cool women's networking meeting the other night. It was with an organization called Heartlink . It was at some one's house. An awesome dinner was served. Tables set, lovely hospitality, and about 20 very interesting women were there. We each got 3 minutes to introduce ourselves and tell a bit about our business's. Most of the women knew each other already. Many of the women present had business's that sell through direct marketing. Most of the big ones were represented, and a few new ones I had never heard of but found interesting. There were also women with other business's like insurance, legal services, printing, etc... It is great to meet like minded people, and I can definitely see the benefits of attending regularly. The bad part however, is it leaves you wanting to go shopping! All of a sudden, I MUST have the new mango cutter from Pampered Chef, and I am yearning to freshen up my candles, and I NEED a hole new wardrobe from CABi . ...

Believing isn't so hard

Why do I believe what I can't see?  That is a valid question. I get it from well intentioned people just trying to understand our differences I guess. I'll try to answer as best as I can. The college years especially, are a time of exploration.  We think in a less inhibited way.  We behave in a less inhibited way.  We ponder, and process, and get emotional about issues we think are important.  It is definitely an important step in the process of maturing.  I too, explored, pondered, got emotional, and was uninhibited. I remember especially being passionate about the right to a woman's choice.  I never took the idea of abortion lightly.  I held the hands of a few friends along the way, as they made that very difficult choice.  I praise God that I was never faced with that decision, I am not sure what I would have done at that stage of my life. I would like to think I would have chosen life, but I can't say for sure. I don't believe that ab...
